Chocolate Chip Coconut Macaroons

Ingredients:
· 5 cups coconut
· 2/3 cup flour
· 1 can (14 ounce) sweetened condensed milk
· 1 egg white
· ¼ teaspoon salt
· ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
· ½ cup chocolate chips

Optional Dip:
· ½ cup chocolate chips
· ½ teaspoon coconut oil


Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Mix together coconut and flour in a large mixing bowl.
Add in condensed milk, egg white, salt, vanilla and 1/2 cup chocolate chips. Mix thoroughly.
Using an ice cream scoop, place scoops onto a cookie sheet lined with parchment.
Bake for 20 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from cookie sheet immediately and cool on a wire rack.
If dipping in chocolate: melt remaining 1/2 cup chocolate chips with 1/2 teaspoon coconut oil in the microwave or over low-medium heat in a saucepan. Pour into a small bowl, and dip just the very bottom (or very top) of the macaroon into the warm chocolate. Place on parchment paper until set.
